Stop rioting, Vancouver!
It's what they do when they lose the cup. Shitheads. Unlike Montreal, who just riot throughout the playoffs.
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Waking up to hear about the riots this morning certainly eased the sting of not being able to see last night's win in person. Not worth stabbing someone over, people!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I do feel like US cities riot when they win more than when they lose? WOOOOO!!! Let's burn up some cars!!!!!!!
Also, I think it's awesome that they just get to take the cup with them right then.

So I took two days off work and when I come back the Health Insurance picture has changed completely.
On Monday - we got a memo saying that the OAPs were not allowed and our choices were the Blue Cross HMOs or the regular insurance. I figured I'd do nothing and be put on regular insurance.
Then, yesterday we got an email that said that for 90 days we can have the OAPs or the HMO I've been on forever. So, I had to do a new benefits choice form to stay with my hmo and then, I guess we'll see what happens in the Fall.

My boss said she was unhappy with how the whole thing has rewarded bad behavior, i.e., if you didn't make a choice in a timely manner you were rewarded by not having to choose.
In the meantime, the state legislature has generously given itself until December 2012 to pay bills due by end of fiscal 2012 (i.e, June 30, 2012.)
They are so nice to themselves.

sumi, I've got HMO Illinois, which is the Blue Cross HMO, and they've been great for me throughout this whole surgery process. I've had the least grief from my insurance company out of just about everyone at my support group meetings.

That's a great photo, but who thinks, "Ooooh, there's the line of riot police, let's make out."

The "Inspired by Luongo: letting someone score" caption cracked me up.
